@DidItForebode This sketch isn't so much about the impersonations, it's more to do with the Dragon's typical behaviour, and just generally mocking what they are like.
This parody more or less sums up the personality of these people perfectly.. Greedy and grasping already with millions sitting there looking to give someone a pathetic few grand in hope to help themselves to someone else's company and hard work and make more millions.They are even more pathetic than Ozzy Osbourne in their ways and that is putting it blunt the pathetic crud's they are. They need to be put down and out of their misery once and for all.
In my opinion, critics should have experience in what they are talking about. Simply not liking a clip based on your personal tastes doesn't really qualify as an experienced critic analyzing the humour within.
i know harry enfield and paul whitehouse aint impressionists,but theyre sketch artists/comics but i think u gotta admit the harry and paul one pisses over this with flying colours
I'm not sure it "pisses over this with flying colours" because they were tackling another aspect of Dragons Den i.e, the inventions that may have been presented in the Victorian Era, this simply highlights and possibly exaggerates the mannerisms of the potential investors, although the Enfield-Whitehouse sketch is good, it is in a different category to this.
Ironically the Dragons are right, this invention would be bad because everyone would create gold, making it in high supply and over inflated and thus worthless, much like our paper currencies. This is the sort of machine one would keep a secret.
@danielthomasslade Oh, yes because being an ignorant prick like you is the model of human endeavour. How sad that you actually took the time from your insignificant life to actually attack an informative point that I made. How sad it must be to be you...
@britishjohn04 The value of gold is already abstract and arbitrary. There's actually an enormous amount of it on the planet. The value of it has nothing to do with it being a scarcity item, it has to do with it being a status symbol. A resource's value can easily be manipulated under capitalism, just look at diamonds. There are billions of diamonds already mined, they are controlled by cartels like any resource (oil or poppies, for example), and the economic system alone distorts their value.
@DGreen999 I am an economics major, and I will tell you without a shadow of a doubt, there is no such wisdom to be had with regard to real world business models and resource economics in any formal college or uni course. As I said, there is no intrinsic scarcity factor with the value of gold, it is merely value fabricated by cultural trends. There are some things which are scarcer and worth nothing, some things more abundant and worth more. Supply & demand is not a scientific law.
@britishjohn04 So youre saying all the jewellery, ornaments etc that could be created with gold - would be the same as all the worthless monopoly money thats being printed maniacally by all the central banks? The fact of the matter is gold has intrinsic value: its easily made into products, its attractive etc - paper money has no intrinsic value at all - other than to burn in times of hyperinflation to keep your homeless starving body warm.
@tiarnan76 Well I agree with you but ultimately if gold was abundant then it would be less value, that is all I am saying. If gold could be created like money is printed, it too would be worth far less than it is now.
ha ha ha , i have actually noticed that in dragons den. As soon as one dragon makes an offer, where 2 of them already said "i am out", suddenly they all become interested in the pitchers proposal lol
Fuckin Funny 150%.....LoL its so true, they really do take the piss sometimes with how much they want in return for what's basically loose change to them. You're house, your car and your first born child LOL...he should of said "and you're shoes".
